Macaque wasn't feeling too great. He started to think about what happened when he was corrupted by the LBD. He hated when he got these thoughts. So many people he loved, got hurt because of him. The memories rushed back to him like a waterfall, he felt his chest get heavy and he became light headed.

He was going to have another panic attack.

He hated when he had these, they aren't the best thing to go through. He blamed and beat himself up for the entire LBD situation. He thinks it's all his fault.

"No...no.." Macaque sat in his and wukongs bedroom on the floor and held his ears. His eyes screwed shut, hyperventilating a bit. His vision was going foggy due to the tears welling up in his eyes. His face went hot and his hands shook.

He looked at his hands in horror, oh no. This was going to be a bad one. He usually used his glamour to hide the white streaks in his crow black fur from when he was possessed. Although when he panicked his glamour fell showing all of his unique attributes. His streaks revealing himself along with his icy blue eye he gained from the possession. It was a tinted blue and yellow. He felt naked.

His brother went heavy and his ears twitched and flinched from everything going so, so loud. He just wanted it all to stop. Stop. Stop. Stop.

He sat on the floor hugging his knees to his chest. He felt like he was being suffocated. Trying desperately to catch his breath. Fat tears rolled off of his face and hugged himself tighter, trying to hush himself in sobs.

"Phew! You all are so much trouble ya know that?" Wukong wiped his forehead.

Wukong stood up and continued picking up the smashed peaches by the tree on the ground. The monkeys got into a little fight over some peaches and ended up tearing up the tree and each other.

"You all have to learn to share! and stop fighting each other." Wukong separated the monkeys by grabbing both of them by the scruff. The animals chirpped at each other and scrambled off.

Wukong sighed "what am I going to do with these knuckleheads." He said making his way inside.

On his way inside the door, he heard a faint, quick breathing and desperate sobs. He walked into his and macaques bedroom and his heart dropped at the sight.

He saw a balled up macaque holding his hands to his ears rocking back and forth a bit. Fat tears spilled from his eyes like a flowing river, they wouldn't stop. Wukong noticed his glamour gone and he could only know what that meant.

Macaque was having a panic attack.

He rushed to the scene and put his hands on macaques shoulders and forced him to make eye contact. Wukongs heart was ripped to shreds at the sight of macaques desperate and panicked expression.

Wukongs tail quickly wrapped around the others to stop the shaking. "Hey, hey look at me..." Wukong held his face gently. Macaque couldn't stop the tears and heavy breathing, he didn't know what to do. He didnt-

Macaque then felt himself being engulfed into a warm and comforting embrace. His blurry vision stopped and his tail gripped tighter on the golden's.

"Please calm down. I'm here, I'm here. Nothing is going to happen to you, you're safe. I won't let anything hurt you. Nothing can get you now, she's gone macaque. Just listen to the sound of my voice." Wukong comforted. Macaque tried. He tried so hard.

He tried to control and coordinate his breathing. He tried to stop shaking. He tried to listen to the soothing sound of wukong trying to calm him down. He could hear his heartbeat pick up then slow down again, macaque took deep breaths and gripped wukong.

"That's it.." Wukong rubbed his hand on macaques back in a comforting motion. "You're doing great. Breathe." Wukongs voice filled with empathy. Macaques breath picked up for a quick second but then slowed down again. His shaking lowered to just his fingertips and his grip on wukong loosened.

"You did it macaque! I'm so proud of you." He said in a gentle tone. "I-im sorry.." Macaque could only muster. He hated when he had panic attacks that resulted in wukong having to help him get through it. He felt bad, he felt weak.

"Do not apologize mac. You can't control when you have these, so don't think for a second that you're weak for having a panic attack. I'm here for you." Wukong reassured. Macaque looked up at him and gave an exhausted grin.

Macaque felt loopy and felt like he could faint. Wukong peppered soft kisses around his cheeks and nose.

"T-thank you...so much..i love you." He sniffed. Feeling hazy and extremely tired. He gave a sloppy smile and passed out. Wukong sighed and carried the poor monkey to bed bridal style.

He gently placed the demon monkey onto the smooth sheets and got in bed with him. So that when he woke up he would wake up comfortable. Wukong cuddled the other and wrapped his tail around macaques leg.

"I love you too."
